EVE player here, single shard is better imo.

Will this be a thing especially on the PvE world?

The Eve for fantasy MMOs

Stuck at the loading world screen for over 10 minutes. I've tried restarting, has anyone else had a problem?

A moderator confirmed everything I've written here about custom worlds and assets. You will be able to also write your mods in multiple coding languages. That is the goal anyway

For those of you mourning the loss of community server support that you wanted from LoA I hit the jackpot via google search. They have confirmed being able to host your own world with thousands of players and mod support including your own mechanics. I know you guys may be let down by LoA but it is in our own best interest to try and support this project and guide it to the original vision of Shards that we wanted. Don't be put off by the cartoon graphics they do have darker stuff on their screenshot tab in Discord.

No worries dude take your time.

Posted on EVE Online Forums; off topic section. I'm also a writer at Imperium News which mainly covers EVE stuff but allows for other game coverage as well. I'm planning on writing a piece on Fractured in the future.

This looked promising until they removed open world PVP.

I wonder if this would be compatible.

Anybody an EVE players here? Currently in Goonswarm Federation.

1. Will guilds be able to control multiple cities and build something akin to a nation?
2. Will there be any formal alliance system between cities?
